Bulk Throttle/Choke Cable Recommendations needed

Recommended Posts

oliver2-44

My C811 needs a new Choke cable and my Mayrath needs a Throttle cable. 

With some other projects, Id like to buy 30-50 ft of bulk cable 

I se ads for plain jacket, plastic coated, Teflon inner liner etc.  

I also see a couple of inner wire thicknesses and outer jacket sizes.

What do yalll use and why.

@WHX?? I recall you've bought some bulk cable in the past.

Jim, I have bought the longer bulk stuff and prefer the plain un-coated kind. The coated ones hold moisture and are hard to lubricate, just me tho.

If your keeping them inside the black coating looks better.

Wish you were closer, I bought 100' of each years ago and will never use it all. I chose the uncoated conduit because like @JoeM pointed out, it is less likely to trap moisture. Before I replace the wire I put some oil in the conduit and run the wire back and forth to spread it a bit.  :twocents-02cents:

I appreciate the though.
